RA No.

8371 provides IPs’ the rights to ancestral domains, which include the right of ownership, right to
develop lands and natural resources, right to stay in the territories, right in case of displacement
(temporary or permanent resettlement and right to return), right to regulate entry of migrants, right to
safe and clean air and water, right to claim parts of reservations (except those intended for common
public welfare and service) and the right to resolve conflict. For ancestral lands, in particular, IPs have
the right to transfer land/property rights to/among members of the same ICCs/IPs and the right to
redeem the property in case of transfers that raise questions on consent given by IPs and transfers made
with unjust considerations and/or prices.
